August 8, 2023 Laura Hayes 0

Your bedroom is the most sacred part of your house. Because it’s where you sleep and unwind after a long day, it makes sense to fill it with decor that’s both welcoming and fits your flair. Displaying art you love in this personal space is a wonderful way to create a sanctuary for yourself to feel relaxed, rejuvenated, or any type of energy you desire.

To help inspire some ideas on how to decorate with art in your bedroom, we pulled together a few looks shared by iCanvas shoppers. From creating a focal point above your bed to making a statement with multiple prints to filling in unexpected areas, keep scrolling to see all the ways people hang artwork in the bedroom.

One Art Print Above the Bed

Whether it’s a burst of joy or a touch of simple comfort, art above the bed is a perfect focal point. And when it’s just one large print, you can count on the art to really set the tone. No matter if you want to see an energetic, colorful tree or unwind with an abstract ocean, a print above your bed can help create the energy you want. From a rustic farmhouse theme to a dose of minimalism, we love how these shoppers made use of this prime space.

Multiple Art Prints Above the Bed

Some people don’t want just one single piece to set the mood of their space; hanging up multiple prints above the bed can help you create a larger aesthetic. Whether it’s a three piece floral design, matching intimate prints, or a combo of art with other decor, you can make a big statement. From bringing a burst of color to adding imaginative energy, we love the way these shoppers used multiple pieces to set the vibes above their bed.

Art Above the Dresser

Aside from the bed, your dresser is another big area that can benefit from art. Whether you want to bring in a bit of nature to relax or add something colorful to tie your space together, it’s a perfect place to hang artwork. From leaning a print of positive words against the wall to hanging playful animals above the surface, we love how these shoppers dressed up their dressers with their own personal touch.

Art Above the Nightstand

Because space is usually limited, most people don’t typically think of the nightstand as an area for art. But we noticed our shoppers making clever use of this space! Whether it’s tying in your color scheme or adding a pop of personality, placing art by your nightstand is a solid option. From stylish and feminine to bright and sweet, we love the way these shoppers made use of this small area.

Bedroom Art in Different Places

While there’s always the most obvious places to decorate your room, that’s not all you’re limited to! No matter the size of your room, you can always find open areas on the walls to fill with art. From beautifying a shoe rack to filling in a narrow corner space, these shoppers found inspiring ways to decorate their rooms. Take a look around your own room to see where else you can fit some art!
